Book Synopsis
Cancer vaccine development has changed from a small-scale academic enterprise in to an applied science requiring a large, clinical-research infrastructure. Cancer Vaccines and Tumor Immunity will serve a unique role in that it will present as a continuum the basic science discoveries that have moved forward into clinical trials.
